1991 Daytona 500
The 1991 Daytona 500, the 33rd running of the event, was held February 17 at Daytona International Speedway. Davey Allison won the pole. In the first Gatorade 125 on Thursday, Richard Petty edged Hut Stricklin for second place, placing The King 3rd on the grid.
A notable absentee was 1972 Daytona 500 winner A. J. Foyt. Foyt was badly injured in the Texaco-Havoline 200 IndyCar race at Road America in the fall of 1990. He suffered severe injuries to his feet and legs, and spent several months out of a racecar before returning to action at Indianapolis in May 1991. Foyt missed his first Daytona 500 since 1965.
==Pre-race Notes==
This race was run right at the end of Operation Desert Storm, also known as the Persian Gulf War. As a sign of support to the troops, 5 cars (that were otherwise unsponsored) sported paint schemes representing the 5 branches of the U.S. Military. It was the first use of special paint schemes in NASCAR, a trend that is prevalent today.〔(Special paint schemes Cup's fashionable trend ); Raygan Swan, NASCAR, April 9, 2007; Retrieved May 22, 2008〕 The cars were technically sponsored in this race by Winston as a show of gratitude to the teams and the troops. In addition, the 5 Armed Forces cars sported the message, "We Support Our Troops" on the TV Panel. These cars were:
*United States Army: 7-Alan Kulwicki
*United States Navy: 18-Greg Sacks
*United States Air Force: 24-Mickey Gibbs
*United States Coast Guard: 71-Dave Marcis
*United States Marines: 88-Buddy Baker
